Right Ho and a jolly good day, fellows ^^

My name is chibi_wolvie, 25 years old, came from Germany and I'm Jeeves & Wooster addicted.  This is my first offcial posting here. I apologized for my bad english, but I learn and working hard on it. I assure you. ^^ Long story short ^^ More under the cuts ^^

 

I'm really very glad to find this lovely Community. I walk here a little bit longer around and lurk here and there, give a comment there and here but I hadn't the trust to write a official post. But at this moment I haven't only the trust, nooo, I have a little tiny story and a little tiny fanart, too. ^^

I'm sure, I'm not as good as some guys here in the Community. Oh, I had never seen adorable fanarts like these in this Community. You're all so great when you draw... all of you ^^ And the writer, too. So great. I have laugh, cry, goofy smile and sometimes I where anxiously... you all did a good job ^^

I know, there are a few mistakes in the text, but I don't see them. I haven't a Betareader for my english text at this moment. When somebody has a little bit time to help out a little poor german girl to find out mistakes in english textes, then you're welcome. ^^

Thank you for this great Community ^^ *curtsey* And here the Fanart and the Fanfiction:
 

Fanart - one scarf, two fellows, three releases

date: 21.12.2008
color / tool: crayons / sharpie

It is winter and they did a walk around the neighbourhood. It is quite around them when they come into the wood... the silence, nobody is there... they're alone...

This is the first release of this fanart. Only the crayon-art without any another things.


Here the second release with snow around them and an light-effect



And here the last release. The background is one of the pictures of the snow that we had in north-germany at the 22.11. I think the both are a little bit blank... O_o

Introduction:
This is the story to the little fanart I have made. I hope you like and understand it ^^

"Melt like snow, Sir"

 

The snow gnashes under our steps. More snow is currently falling, laid down into our footsteps it blurs the way that we came by. Everything around us is under a thick white blanket. All is white, wherever you look, even your breath when you blow it into your hands to warm them up. I stop short, thinking your hands cannot be cold; they're in gloves.

You notice my hesitation, even though I thought I didn't let it show. Our glances meet each other for a moment and you smile. Immediately I warm up. I want to return the smile, but I can't. Anyway, you’re smiling. You don't disturb things like that. You could melt the snow with your smile, do you know that?

You come closer to me, carefully. You hop from foot to foot to warm yourself up, and I take the chance, grabbing your hand, pulling you closer to me, if only a tiny bit. I grab for my long scarf and undo it before I wrap one end of the scarf around your neck.

You look at me. I can see how baffled you are, but when you touch the scarf, a smile lights up your face like a flower that has come out of the snow. And I know this smile is only for me.

You're stronger than you think. You say that you always need my help, but I need your help too. I swallow, wondering if you noticed. I'm not as strong as you. When you say that we’re close-knit standing like this, I do smile.

My answer is a slight nod; I cannot speak at this moment. I wish I could ask you to come closer to me; for me this isn't near at all. Your breath touches my neck, but I cannot say anything... I'm powerless.

I feel my cheeks developing a blush. My mouth doesn't speak, but my body does, and so I lower my eyes. You're still here next to me, sharing the scarf, sharing the silence, the snowflakes caught in your hair...

I hear the snow gnashing under your steps, feel your warm breath nearer by, touching my hot cheeks, touching my heart. My eyes, searching for yours, find them looking at me, thoughtful. Something is in the air, but unlike the snow, this something is warm...

You trust yourself to get over the last hurdle, showing your strength. I am weak in your hands, I can do nothing more than gently return this warm kiss.

And all I can whisper afterwards is: 'I love you too, Sir...'

 


- End -

Thank you for read this little fanfiction ^^

Hello, and welcome to the community : )

Three things:
1: I love your drawing, they're unbelievably cute, and I do love cute boys <3

2: I can beta this little thing in less than ten minutes, if you want me to..?

3: Only thing that could be better about this post is if you'd put it under a cut. If you don't know how to put things under a cut, here's a short explanation:

- go to edit post
- write < lj-cut text="Right Ho and a jolly good day, fellows ^^"> at the very top of your post, in the text editing space, without the space after the first bracket
- write < /lj-cut> at the end of your post, once again with no space
- save post

This way, it takes up a lot less space on people's friends-lists : )

Let me know regarding the betaing,

I'm already done, with the betaing, I mean (I'm a teacher's child and a grammar nerd). Have sent you the betaed fic as a PM, you should find it in your inbox. I've not changed anything bar the grammatical errors, seeing as I didn't know what you'd think about that. Most of them were just German grammar in an English text, which, seeing as even though I'm a bit rusty I still get by fairly easy in German, wasn't hard to understand : )

Not at all,

Ich hab' Deutch 6 Jahre in der Schule gelernt, aber weil ich es fast niemals reden kann, die Wörter sind ein bisschen zwergiger zu erinnern : ) That probably wasn't entirely correct, been ages since I last wrote anything in German, hehe..

I've got six languages so far, my German is the one needing the most work, but I'm getting there, when I was in Berlin a couple of weeks ago I had no trouble with my German at all. Reading and listening tends to do the trick!

And we do tend to be very nice here, yes *re:hugs*

..could have swore I typed 'schwieriger'.. But then again, I ran it through Word's grammar thingy, which doesn't have the best track record.. Next time I'll just stick to what I think is right : P

Yes, Zwerg = dwarf, I remember that from translating parts of Lord of the Rings in German class X D

I speak (and write) English, Danish, German (sort of, when I'm not completely rusty), Spanish, Swedish and Norwegian. Will hopefully start Russian soon, I'm not hoping to be fluent, but it would be so good to be able to at least make myself understood if I have to speak to someone who does speak Russian but doesn't speak English.

You're amazing. :0

I know a little kid (8 years old! T.T) who speaks almost perfect English- although it's her 3rd language!

Yet I...know only English. T.T


This kind of reminded me of a joke I once heard where a freind is trying to cheer up his depressed freind by comparing lives and showing how much better he has it. His last point is "At least you get good grades! I got a D in English! I flunked my own language!" xD

...Don't know why, but this conversation reminded me of that. :3

Hehe, you'd not have liked me much when I was eight, then, I spoke Norwegian, Swedish, English, some Danish and a little bit of Spanish by then.. Wasn't fluent in Spanish until I lived in Chile though, when I was 21, and my German (which began when I was 8) is still rusty 'cause I don't get to use ot that often, but I can understand it perfectly.

It's partly due to the fact that I've grown up in a tiny wee country that's clinging to it's language, but still needs an international one 'cause it's so tiny. English is our second language by default, then either German, French or Spanish, but for me it was Norwegian, English, Swedish, Danish, German and finally Spanish when it comes to mastering it as well as I am now. I can read Italian, Portugese, Dutch and French, and understand spoken Italian and Brazilian Portugese (not Portugese Portugese though), but I don't have any eastern European languages yet, hence the Russian I'm hopefully starting in January. Next language'll probably be a tiny bit of Mandarin, Japanese, Swahili or Arabic, I'm having the most difficult time deciding where to start, I want to know them all!

And I've a mate who said that to me re: poetic analysis in Chile, I got full marks (7,0), along with an American boy, and almost all the Chilean students got 5,0 or less, and one of the boys commented that I just kicked his arse in his own language with my sixth. Which I will readily admit was rather a nice feeling : )

:D That's splendiferous!

I have no head for languages. I remember phrases well though, it's declensions I can't recall.

You should do like Professor Bob (American professor in Social Anthropology at the University), move to a country where people speak English, but where you have to speak the local language to be eligible for any job other than tourist guide. He still has an American accent when speaking Norwegian, but his Norwegian is very good. Nothing beats a potbellied man with a moustache, a leather waistcoat and one of those stringy-ties going "Hello, my name is Robert.. or Bob! : D" in a rather thick American accent <3

It's one thing learning a language in school, it's quite another when you're bombarded with it 'cause it's on the telly, it's in the music, the papers, the shops etc. Best way to learn a language? Live where they speak it for a while : )

This is undoubtedly the most adorable thing ever! I love your drawings, and the story, although it is not the best English, makes me smile so big because it is most charming! It's almost like reading a very abstract prose poem. (And obviously much better than my German would be.)

I can do nothing but encourage more. :D

I think I melted like ice cream in the summer. There´s no snow in Prague but you know what? I see it outside anyway. Okay, just before I turn into Madeline - I really loved this.

Well, usually we have some kind of the brown wet something, the snow in the city can´t last very long... But this year? Simply nothing.

Slightly off topic now - but thinking of German, I remember our English lesson (four years ago or something like that) and we had to translate: "I have a problem with German" from Czech to English. Well, who hasn´t :) And my friend said: "I have a problem with Germany." Our teacher got slightly pale and said: "You have a problem with Germany? Who are you talking to? Stalin?"
Not very christmassy, but there you go :)

Those pictures are the sweetest! So lovable.

I think it's entirely realistic that Jeeves should recognise the inner strength that Bertie does have, that only those who are oblivious never notice, and the ending made me melt like snow.

I wouldn't mind some snow at the moment. Our so-far cool summer seems to be over and now the temperature is climbing. :-( But there is no getting out of it. Just looking at those two chibi-cuties without hats in the snow made me feel a little cooler!

I think they both need each other equally. Bertie needs looking after and he needs someone who is actually fond of him. Jeeves needs to be needed, really needed, and he needs a happy home and security as well. And they both need to be loved. :)

I think that Jeeves' powerlessness, hesitation and restraint are very much in character, as is his ultimate frankness about his feelings. :-)
